La
Ropa Sucia (Dirty Laundry) Fotonovela. La Ropa
Sucia is a fotonovela produced by ETV, in collaboration
with Palmetto & Luna and the SC Humanities council,
and designed to target both Hispanic and non-Hispanic teenagers;
its purpose is to shed light on the issues facing the Hispanic
community, such as racism, assimilation, and religious and
sub-cultural division, as well as more universal issues
such child abuse, domestic violence, addiction, and low
self-esteem – issues that all teens may face. The
project was conceived and directed by Marycruz Figueroa,
a young woman of Mexican and Guatemalan descent, who was
born in Aiken, South Carolina.
